Scoring Drives
Hardin-Simmons who close their
1034 football season week after next
ngatnst Austin college rang-up a 0
to 0 victory In tho first quarter over
Daniel Baker last Friday evening. It
was the locals' first bucccss in four
starts and their last chance for a
favorable decision before tho Novem-
ber 24 date rings own the curtain on
their Texas conference competition
an season.
Fleet-footed Buck Howell behind
tho expert interference of Pete Tyler
ran back n nunt to within easy floor
ing distance early in the opening
frame. Thereafter it was simply n
matter of tho Cowhand defense hold
ing at bay a striving Hill Billy eleven
whoso loss toppled them from tho
top in the circuit standing.
Addington Scores
Si Addington accounted for the en-
tire scoring for tho night when he
went across on a second thrust from
the seven yard stripe following How-
ell's run-back of Hickman's punt
from the Daniel Baker 45-yard stripe.
The Hill Billy lino was set for a
smash to the right but Addington
cut to the left on a reverse and went
over from the five-yard lino. Elton
Murphy's try for point missed.
Daniel Baker Threats
Twice during tho remainder of the
game the Ranchers were forced to
extend themselves in order to stem
Hill Billy advances. Although the
visitors on two occasions penetrated
the 20-yard strip they could come no
nearer than the 12-yard Jine to n
touchdown.
Penalties gave the invaders their
first opportunity to count in the sec-
ond frame. A Cowboy punt would
have given the ball to Danle) Baker
on its 21-yard line but Elton Mur-
phy big sophomore tackle wos oust-
ed from the game for kicking nnd
the Cowboys penalized half the dis-
tance to the goal. That put the ball
on tho Simmons 33 and a minute later
they got the ball on tho H-S 17 when
n lineman of the home team was
caught holding while a kick was in
the nir.
Tho Billies netted two yards in the
next series of downs before losing
the ball. Jack Snodgrass much her-
nlded high scoring threat lost five
yards on the first play. But he re-
gained the ground and two more on
the next. The two remaining at-
tempts wero incomplete aerials.
Daniel Baker's second chance enme
near tho close of tho third round.
Howard 'and Crane put over their
team's only demonstration of running
power when they carried the oval to
the Cowboy 27. Then Howard dodg-
ing nnd stiff arming slipped nwny
from four or five tacklers to the 12-
yard line.
Theo Rigsby smeared for u five
yard loss the initial play which was
a sweeping run to the left. Two in-
complete forward passes followed the
latter attempt Crnne failed to hold
with a clear field for a touchdown.
They lost tho ball when a fourth-
down play netted only two yards.
Line Offense Tested.
The only severe test of tho Cowboy
line was on the offensive. It was in
tho third quarter when Jim Neely
intercepted a pass nnd wos spilled on
his one-ynrd line. In two bucks the
Cowmen advanced about five yards
and then gave Tyler amplo timo for
tho good kick ho got off on third
down and took tho locals out of tho
hole
Thrughout the opejiing half tho in-
vaders' offensivo failed to click but
got started in tho final two and out-
pointed tho Cowmen in first downs
0 to 5. Aerial heaves by Reaves
Hickman half accounted for the Hill
Billies making their yardage on four
occasions.
Tyler added affinal thrill lato in
tho fourth with a G5-yard return of
Hickman's punt. After ho wns stop-
ped on tho 30 yard line Addington
passed to Scroggins for 14 yards only
to have tho ndvnnco nipped with a
15-yard penalty.

Tho Jackets opened with a power
ful running attack outclassing the
Wildcats in every department in the
first half. Both of the touchdowns
enmc in tho first hnlf of the contest.
Wildcat Defense Tough
The Wildcats enme through with a
stubborn defense in the last half to
hold tho jackets scoreless with one
drive being stopped on the A. C. C.
one-foot line. The Wildcats were
kept in tho hole throughout the game
never gaining possession of the ball
outside their own 30 yard line until
late in the fourth quarter when Hill
took n long pass to the Jackets' 42
yard stripe. This play was followed
by a 15 yard jaunt on a lateral from
Hill to Baldwin for the Wildcats'
most serious threat.
Score on Pass

touchdown late in first quarter after
driving 40 yards down field. Taylor

The local board of strategy is point-
ing for something other than a de-
feat at the hands of the Matadors.
From all indications of locked doors
on tho practice field and tho deter
mined looks on the faces of the Cow-
hands it looks as if the charges of
Coaches Cranfill and Payne are hav-
ing hopes for a victory.
You cant always determine tho
winner of a classic ns that of the
Tech-Cowboy fracas regardless of
the great record of one and the ex-
ceptional poor showing of tho other.
With the determination for victory
that is always on the lips of the Cow-
hands before the Matador game one
team is usually under-rated or tho
other has a surprisingly bad after-
noon. Our thoughts go back to the
historic battle that the Cowboys
waged against a superior Matador
eleven in 1032. Tho odds were threo
to one ngainst the Cranfillmcn but
the Cowboys made good the miscues
of a confident Tech outfit that day
and cnicrged from the battle with the
big end of 13-12 verdict.
The locals had had a bad year los-
ing practically alLof their games nnd
Tech had celebrated one of its great-
est seasons during its history with
victories over Baylor and SMU. Tho
Cowhands did not play the Bears nor
tho Mustangs but they had played
tho T. C. U. Horned Frogs who that
year won tho Southwestern confer-
ence flag.
The Cowhands were not duo to beat
the Matadors that day and they are
not due to win Friday but they can
if they play against the Matadors
like they did against the Baylor Bears
hero several weeks ago hand tho
charges of Pete Cawthorn another un-
suspected defeat.

After making a slow start in their
conference race it might be said that
the Cowhands started out on a new
season last Friday night when they
beat the Hill Billies. Tech is the
second game of their new season. If
they beat tho Matadors this colum-
nist would Bay that the Cowhands will
end a successful season then and
there regardless of what they do
against tho School of Mines and Aus
tin college.
For several weeks wo have been
making predictions on the outcome
of the college conference races in this
section of tho country. Some of them
have been far wrong and others have
been even worse. This week we are
going to give the Cowboys the ad-
vantage of the odds and pick them to
beat the touted Texas Tech Matadors.
The Matadors have lost only two
games this season and if you have
been following them very closely you
will know that they have been de-
feated only by Texas university and
Loyola of the West in California.
The Matadors have made more than
an impressive record and wo believe
that the Cowhands will bent them
just because of their record. We feel

McMurry college nnd St. Edwards
university elevens met Fridnv on" a
rnin-sonked field at Austin and bat-
tled to a scoreless draw.
Three times St. Edwards threaten-
ed to score. In the first porioJ Chen-
tham and Klein advanced tho bnll to
tho Indians' 12-yard stripe on three
long runs but tho McMurry line held.
Agnin in the second period Klein
kicked to McMurry's 30-ynrd line anJ
the Indians were penalized lo yards
for unnecessary roughness the ball
being awarded to the Tigers on tho
visitors' 15-yard line due to inter-
ference. The Indian line again buck-
ed up and held for downs.
Tho Tigers made their last bid to
score in the third period when Dick
Brcsenhan galloped 25 yards to the
McMurry 5-yard line. Pollock fum-
bled on the next play nnd recoveied
for n seven-yard loss but further at-
tempts to puncturo the enemy line
failed.
McMurry threatened in the third
when Carter and Brooks advanced the
ball to the Tigerl5-yard lina but they
were held for downs.
Blackburn kicked beautifully for
McMurry despite the slippery condi-
tion of the field was on tho heaving
end of whnt few passes were at-
tempted and carried the ball for sev-
eral nice gains.
Carter and Brooks managed to pick
up a few yards although the slip-
pery condition of the field prevented
them from gettinsr started. Harless
who scored the winning touchdown
against St. Edwards last year was
stopped cold.
In the lino Jefferies stood out at
right guard Daniels at end Stock-
ton at right tackle and Brian at cen-
ter played nice defensive games.
A heavy rain which fell a few hourb
prior to the start of the game turned
tho gridiron into a quagmire and pre-
vented sustained running or passing
attacks and made punting danger-
ous. The contest wns slow and draggy
throughout. It was witnessed by only
a few hundred students duo to incle
ment weather.
Second and Fourth Quarters
Display Good Defense
For Yearlings
Hardin-Simmons Freshmen football
proteges broke into tho win column
last Saturday night when they de-
feated tho all-star Burkburnett ag-
gregation 12-0 on tho latter's home
field.
The game was witnessed by John
Hardin one of the university bene-
factors who personally opened the
game when he kicked off to tho Burk-
burnett team for tho Frosh.
The Fish scored first in the open-
ing minutes of the gome when Smith's
kick-off was fumbled by a Burkbur
nett back on their five yard line. The
nil-stars' punt wns partly blocked and
the Slimes got the ball on the Burk-
burnett twenty yard line. Boutwell
and Fulcher in successive thrusts at
the line drove the ball down to the
nil-stars six yard lino where Fulcher
lunged the ball over. The try for
extra point was blocked.
Fish Score Again
In this qunrter the Hardin-Simmons
freshmen scored ngain. After a sus-
tained drive that opened in the mid-
dle of the field with Isaacs and Wheel-
carrying the ball. Isaacs scored

Fulcher freshmnn fullbnck was the

ning. He was the mainspring of the
Slimes offense and played well on
defense. The Burkburnett team was
composed of former high school nnd
college grid stars.
